API Call Add-Ons from the Knack Dashboard

This article will go over how you can add additional API calls to your Knack account.

We're excited to announce our new API Call Add-Ons feature! To enable our account owners to increase the number of API calls your account can make per day, this feature has been added to the Plan & Billing section of the Dashboard.

Where can I purchase additional API calls?

From the Plan & Billing section of the Dashboard, you can select "Purchase Add-Ons":

You can also select the "Add-Ons" tab at the top of the Plan & Billing page. This will direct you to where you can choose the amount of additional API calls you would like to add to your plan:

Suppose you have previously purchased an additional API call package. In that case, you will be able to view the current selection you have with the "Current" badge to the right of the number of additional API calls:

To increase or decrease the amount of API calls, you can select the amount that you want, which will then provide details of the change in a modal pop-up:

Once you select "Purchase", you will see a notification that your API add-on calls updated successfully:

You can also remove your current API plan package by selecting the "Remove" button. If you choose to remove the current API calls add-on, a modal pop-up will appear to confirm the removal:

Note: Your changes will be updated and reflected in your "Plan Details" section.

Where can I view the daily limit of API calls my plan currently has?

To view your current total daily limit of API calls that your plan has, you can view this from the "Plan Usage" section that exists under the "Overview" tab:

Tip: The daily limit adds the plan total (in this example case, 5,000 API calls) plus the add-on amount.

 

If you have purchased add-ons, you will be able to view this information under your "Plan Details" as well as in the "Add-Ons" section:

Additional Notes

  • We cannot increase the per-second API call limit at this time.

  • We are still enforcing a rate limit of 10 API calls per second. Any additional calls after the limit will return an error.

  • If you need more than 100,000 additional calls added to your plan, please reach out to the support team for assistance.

  • API calls add-ons can only be purchased by the account owner. If you're not the account owner, please reach out to the support team for assistance.
